By the way, it's -13 celcius outside and Jay did all this cutting in the unheated garage where I swear it felt at least 10 degrees colder!! We ended up bringing in all the cut pieces to finish assembling and sanding it. I am in love with my mold. Oh and I am so in love with my man!
I have designs for three more molds and cutters that we created and have yet to make that will produce different types and sizes of soaps. Can't wait to get started...gotta get out my Lowes discount card and go shopping for some wood LOL!
Thank you honey for such an awesome job!
Look at this! He cut a groove out so that the lid fits inside and won't touch the soap.
and he made me a nifty handle that is easy for my fingers to grip.
The finished product!
I'm thinking he should go into business building wooden molds and selling them, what do you think? :)

Hey
it looks great.
He sure loves you... to go out and make that in this weather. brrr
So how do you get the soap out of the mold?

Yes he must love me eh? I get it out by first lining it with parchment or freezer paper.
He made a lovely soap box and I can vision it being used for other things as well.
Crafty Gardener, I too can envision other uses. My hubby actually said that it looked like a little coffin. So, we both agreed that in order to maintain it's sentimental value, when one of us goes home to Glory, the other will put our cremated ashes in it and place it on the piano. LOL. Hopefully that doesn't sound too morbid (wink) It would definitely be a nice smelling resting place!
